The beer taps have improved over the years here. Itís centrally located in Federation Square so itís easy to stop by throughout the day and grab a beer. Thereís an extensive bottle selection in the fridge although I always stick with the taps. Daily food and beer deals available but check the menu. Of course, given itís location it does gets mad busy during peak hours but always worth a look at least for a swift one.

A pleasant surprise in Federation Square. Given the tourist-friendly location and mainstream corporate feel, the tap and bottle selection were great. Both local and fun international beers, with lots of depth and breadth. Local brews we didn't see anywhere else in town. Local Berliner weisse, FEX, and more. Solid place to visit for a beer, and the cinema museum next door is worth a poke too--it's free.

Visited first time on July 25, 2013. Also returned on July 30.Pretty much on Federation square, shouldnít be that hard to find. Some seating indoors on ground level, upstairs was closed first time I visited and had a separate function second time I was there. Plenty of outdoors seating.14-15 taps and plenty of bottles. No WiFi. Those I spoke to had good knowledge of the beers. No tasting paddles available.If you downloaded their app and checked in you got a free beer, sweet!Not the cheapest place, but nice, good selection, good service, and very centrally located. Also, no damn poker machines, well at least none I noticed.On my second visit had a much bgger crowd, more people ordering at the bar and was ratehr noisy.

In Federation square, so its busy and touristy. I waited 20 minutes with 6 people ahead of me to just get a beer. 6 beers on tap, 15 ish bottles, common stuff you can you can get anywhere, but pay double here. Cool area to be in, just not worth paying to get a decent beer here.

Iím with the GrandMaster. A decent number of beers but massively overpriced and nothing you canít easily find elsewhere. Tap beer range is pretty ordinary, not much love for the locals at all. A ícivilisedí place for a beer but not much character. Youíd think a place with the word beer in the name would make more of an effort. You might as well just walk down to Transport - thatís saying something.

Cool place to grab a beer and chill out from the hustle and bustle of the city. Nice location at the top of Fed Square. Not a massive selection but there isnít much room for anything else as itís a small spot. Nice to see beer on tap and bottles. Good to see they support a lot of the local craft. Donít come expecting much imported stuff. If youíre after a solid local and have some time to kill, then this would be a cool place to come

Funny place. The location must cost a packet in rent. This is reflected in the prices, though some prices are quite reasonable too. Very chain coffee shop vibe, no real atmosphere. Decent selection on tap. Probably a place I would only drop in to try a beer I couldnít get elsewhere.

Good location at Federation Square. Has an extensive beer list and a good number of taps to choose from. They now carry more aussie craft beers than they did a few years ago. The service can vary from time to time but overall it is quite good. Didnít try the food but looks pretty good. Nice place for a break when you are in the CBD. Also it is not far from Young & Jackson.

After travelling in Australia and hitting both Sydney and Adelaide, this find in Melbourne was a decent reprive. Ok selection of bottles and I ended up getting an Orval. Nice location in the square, friendly staff, and pretty good food. I had The Lot burger which came with everything, including an egg! Overall, I thought this place was pretty decent. A bit pricey but it seems everything in AU is pricey.
